“…The discussion held with different stakeholders also revealed that the responsible institutions at all levels did not efficiently implement the given tasks. The current study supports the findings by Deininger et al . (2012).…”

“…Another study by Caspary (2007) revealed that displacement by insufficient compensation of people causes various social, economic, political and cultural problems. Because of often little or no compensation, the expropriation process undermines tenure security (Deininger et al ., 2012). Inadequate compensation may also lead to unemployment, homelessness, landlessness, marginalization, loss of access to common property, erosion of health status and social disarticulation (Cernea, 2000).…”

PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to examine expropriation, valuation, compensation and rehabilitation practices and their impacts on expropriated households.Design/methodology/approachThis study employed a mixed research approach. The target populations of the study were expropriated households in Debre Markos City from 2019 to 2022. The study uses purposive and systematic random sampling techniques. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, narration and thematic clustering.FindingsThe findings of this study revealed that the expropriation process was not participatory and the right holders were not treated as what is expected. It is further found that economic losses, moral damage and social disturbance payments were not considered in the compensation package. The displacement compensation given was also inadequate and sometimes delayed and the time value of money was not taken into account for delayed payments. This creates social and economic problems. The rehabilitation and resettlement program was inadequate and ineffective. The expropriation, valuation, compensation and rehabilitation practice in general lack transparency and accountability.Practical implicationsTo ensure efficient and effective expropriation, valuation and compensation, there should be a well-organized government system that provides an accurate valuation on the one hand and restores the livelihood of the displaced on the other.Originality/valueThis paper is the first on expropriation, valuation, compensation and rehabilitation within the framework of transparency, accountability, effective rehabilitation and resettlement and institutional arrangements to ensure the sustainable livelihoods of affected households.

“…Land governance is an agenda that has proliferated in international development circles in recent decades, gaining prominence with the convergence of rising food prices, a growing agrofuel sector hungry for land, demand for agrarian reform from transnational peasant movements, and as a response to the popular outcry against the “global land grab” that occurred in the wake of the 2008 financial crisis (Borras and Franco, 2010; Deininger et al., 2012; FAO, 2012). Dominant land governance discourse has focused on the related concepts of rights, tenure security, and land markets.…”

This paper contributes to global debates on environmental governance by drawing on recent ontological scholarship to ask: What would it mean to ontologically engage the concept of environmental governance? By examining the ontological underpinnings of three environmental governance domains (land, water, biodiversity), we find that dominant contemporary environmental governance concepts and policy instruments are grounded in a modernist ontology which actively shapes the world, making certain aspects and relationships visible while invisibilizing others. We then survey ethnographic and other literature to highlight how such categories and their relations have been conceived otherwise and the implications of breaking out of a modernist ontology for environmental governance. Lastly, we argue that answering our opening question requires confronting the coloniality woven into the environmental governance project and consider how to instead embrace ontological pluralism in practice. In particular, we examine what taking seriously the right to self-determination enshrined in the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples (UNDRIP) could mean for acknowledging Indigenous ontologies as systems of governance in their own right; what challenges and opportunities exist for recognizing and translating ontologies across socio-legal regimes; and how embracing the dynamism and hybridity of ontologies might complicate or advance struggles for material and cognitive justice.

“…Decentralized urban land administration is more responsive to local requests, opens up more room for localized decision making, and inspires downward responsibility (Hilhorst, 2010, p. 41). In this regard, the 3Es are vital elements to facilitate land registration, allocation, valuation, and taxation systems (Bhuiyan, 2011, p. 54; Deininger et al, 2012, pp. 90–106).…”

There is global consensus on the need for information and communication technology (ICT) to support digital transformation in public administration. This is specifically true in decentralized public administration, where the stakeholders need a modern technology that integrates them. This study examines the emerging challenges and prospects of digital transformation and the stakeholders’ integration in urban land administration in Mekelle City, Ethiopia. An interpretive paradigm, qualitative analytical method, and case study strategy were adopted for this study. A total of 78 interviewees comprising 30 auctioneers, 20 experts, 20 officials, 4 judges, and 4 prosecutors participated based on the data saturation principle. The study revealed that digitalized land administration offers opportunities to reduce civil servants’ workload, improve cost-effective service delivery, and enhance trust between the municipal government and its clients. However, the system of urban land administration in the city is not digitalized due to financial limitations and leadership challenges. Furthermore, this study revealed a low level of stakeholders’ integration in Mekelle due to the lack of proper implementation of e-government, e-service, and e-participation, including lack of commitment by the stakeholders. Thus, a non-digitalized land administration system, insufficient capacity, and weak monitoring and evaluation systems impeded the client’s pursuit of enhanced municipal government services.
